Alliance of Women Entrepreneurs

As a part of Bookshop Santa Cruz’ year long Women’s Voices event, The Alliance of Women Entrepreneurs (AWE) is dedicated to women in the workplace and specifically focuses on the unique leadership and community-building strength of women business owners.

AWE is focused on shining a light on the number of downtown businesses/organizations that are owned or managed by women. Santa Cruz Photographer Mara Milam captured some of these amazing and dynamic women.
